Beekeeping Classes Starting Soon

Growing Gardens will offer a series of beekeeping classes to start next Saturday the 12th, and taking you with monthly classes through your journey into the fall. Costs and details found here.

Plant Sales This Weekend

Some really good options for getting your starter plants this weekend, as the mid-May temperatures get more favorable for the kinds of things I like to plant. Growing Gardens will hold its third and last of the season weekend plant sale tomorrow and Sunday, 8 am to 4 pm at 1630 Hawthorn Avenue, including lots of organic, pollinator-friendly, and water-wise plants. The Boulder Culinary Gardener's Guild will hold a plant sale tomorrow from 8 am to 3 pm at Bickell's sheep farm, 988 75th Street, between Arapaho and Baseline on 75th. Plus don't forget all the plant starts that will be available at tomorrow's Boulder Farmers' Market.

Time To Get Planting!

At least judiciously, since there's still the possibility of frost despite our recent warm temperatures. Many thanks to reader Gina for cluing me in to the Growing Gardens plant sale, which will be happening next weekend and the following one (in addition to one just past) at the Growing Gardens Greenhouse, 1630 Hawthorn Avenue, 8 am to 4 pm. You can get all the details here, including that the organic tomatoes will be in biodegradable pots!
